[QUOTE="StihlyinEly, post: 1755055, member: 41417"] Up here we buy maple or birch in logger's cords (96 inch lengths stacked 4 feet high and 4 feet wide, for a standard cord dimension). The wood suppliers say you lose 20 percent off logger's cords after cutting and splitting. I'd say that's about right. We get 8-10 logger's cords a year for our home heating and split and stacked it tends to run 20 percent less by volume. Not quite the same as rounds (what I grew up calling block), because 8-footers stacked next to each other contain a LOT more air because they are not particularly straight. Great site, by the way!
